OSU was 13-28 vs. our 6-19 from deep and they were 9-13 vs. our 8-17 from the line. That's easily a 12-point difference and we lost by 14. Shooting matters and they just shot a lot better. I thought we played decently - they just played/shot better. I think our rebounding edge (36-25) was negated by their TO edge (12-6). And we had no answer for Wesson in the first half.
Omoruyi had a fantastic game with 19/8 (on 7-11 FGs) and Caleb had probably his best game with 14 points, 3 boards, and 4 steals (and a block). Nobody else played what I would call a good game vs. expectations. Baker and Mathis were a combined 3-18 and Harper only took 1 shot. Kiss played poorly and Johnson/Doorson/Carter played just ok, as they couldn't stop Wesson. Doorson did have 9 points, though, which is good for him.
At least we didn't get blown out, which might've happened had we played similarly early in the year. Let's move on. Can't wait for Michigan at the RAC, although hate that they just lost to Iowa.
